Ohio Valley Foundation Fifth Third Bank

About Ohio Valley Foundation Fifth Third Bank

Ohio Valley Foundation Fifth Third Bank gives almost all of its recent support in flat $25,000 grants, with awards reaching arts institutions, education providers, youth programs, and neighborhood service groups across Greater Cincinnati. The pattern is consistent: in 2024 it backed Mercantile Library for a capital campaign and Springer's School & Center for its own capital campaign, while in 2025 it supported Greater Cincinnati Behavioral Health and the Jewish Community Center at the same grant level. That mix points to a local funder that uses a standard grant size to support both facilities and ongoing services. The foundation’s recent grants also show a steady interest in organizations serving children, students, and families. Mount St. Joseph University received project support in 2024, and Girl Scouts of Western Ohio was funded in 2025 for project support. In the cultural sector, the foundation has supported groups such as The Children’s Theatre, Cincinnati Shakespeare Company, and the Taft Museum of Art. Across these awards, it appears to favor small-to-midsize nonprofits with defined local programs or building needs rather than large, open-ended commitments.
